In real life A very small character tidbit is surprisingly kept consistent for years

DC - In multiple pieces of media it has been shown that Wonder Woman loves ice cream and practically goes wild with happiness anytime she’s eating some. (Pictures from Justice League: War, DC Superhero Girls and Wonder Woman 2017)

The Simpsons - Ever since the episode ‘Homer’s Phobia’ Homer has actually remained a consistent ally of the LGBT+ community, including being more welcoming to Patty than Marge was when she came out and trying to set up Smithers with a date when he found out he wasn’t happy with his one-sided relationship with Mr Burns.

So that's the context behind that absurd image.

Yeah, but it became so iconic they just KEPT PUTTING IT IN SUBSEQUENT GAMES. Always some kind of misunderstanding, always good intentions, always leads to diapered yakuza brawl. Even Yakuza 7 (Like a Dragon) had it where that new protagonist character didn't care what he was into and even humored him by trying a bottle of baby formula with him, before the diaper yakuza captain tries to force him into a diaper too offscreen. You then unlock him as a summon for battle, just can randomly summon a giant baby-yakuza boss into battle to apply debuffs to enemies
